The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1334

Cooking up such a feast, he was definitely buttering up Mrs. Harper. But Nate was still in the dark. What the heck

had the chubby chef done?

He discreetly peeked at Chloe. She was eyeing the feast, a satisfied look on her face. Where was the damsel in

distress from just a moment ago? Was she just playing mind games with Mr. Harper to trick him into sticking

around?

“How’s it taste?” Damon asked.

Chloe nodded. “Delicious.” She glanced at the plate and then quietly looked away.

After a hearty lunch, Chloe looked quite content. Seeing this, the chubby chef finally breathed a sigh of relief. He

had dodged a bullet today. But could Mrs. Harper really pack it away like that?

After lunch, Damon had to head back to the office for the afternoon meeting. He reached the doorway when the

chubby chef approached him.

“Mr. Harper…”

Damon looked at him nonchalantly and said, “Send me the recipes for everything except the roasted pork chop and

boiled chickpeas.”

“Sure thing!” The chef quickly agreed.

Damon gave a nod, looked up towards the house one last time before getting into his car.

“Where’s Seth staying?” Damon asked.

Nate, who was driving, replied, “Mr. Diaz is always on the move.I’ll need some time.”

“Make it quick. I want to see him after work today.”

“Yes, sir.”

No sooner had Damon left, Chloe dialed a number at the office. Before long, job postings from Starlight

International were popping up on major websites. The news stirred up quite a buzz among the entertainment media

and the bloggers.

“Damn, recruiting at a time like this. Ms. Summers is a real firecracker.”

“She’s a freakin‘ genius! Always cool as a cucumber, and now she pulls a move like this. It’s a slap in the face for

Infinity Media.”

“What a joke Infinity Media and Wendy turned out to be. All that hostility, all that pride for being part of the Alonso

family and look where it got them. Just a few months in, and Infinity Media is going down the drain.”

“Why are we talking about Infinity Media and Wendy when Ms. Summers is hiring? Shouldn’t you be rushing to

Starlight International to become the next big star?”

“Do you think just anyone can become a star? We ordinary folks should just sit back and enjoy the show.”

“I’ve got my popcorn ready!”

“Got my chair set!”

“I’ve stocked up on popcorn!”

Within half an hour of the news release, artists and agents were pouring into Wendy’s office at Infinity Media.

Wendy was having a rough day, feeling all out of sorts. She had seen the news online but couldn’t make heads or

tails of it. It wasn’t until people started showing up at her office that she began to put together the pieces.

“You’re saying you want to cancel the contract?”

“Yes, Ms. Wendy, all the endorsements and scripts under my name have been returned. We were promised a

minimum workload when we signed the contract, but we haven’t met that quota for months. Typically, the work

picks up towards the end of the year with award ceremonies and end–of–year shows, but I haven’t received any

invitation. I haven’t even filmed a decent TV show this year. You’ve breached the contract.”

“Same here, you had me endorsing all sorts of products, cancelling jobs I was already discussing. But now the

brands are terminating contracts. My image and interests have been severely damaged, so I want to terminate the

contract.

“Seems like we all signed similar contracts. I’m asking for a contract termination for the same reasons.‘

Wendy could feel her veins throbbing. Looking at the flood of job postings from Starlight International, she was

ready to blow her top. No wonder everyone was sitting back to enjoy the show. They were waiting to see her fail.

Chloe was ruthless. She had been quiet all this while, but now she took advantage of the situation to lure away

Wendy’s artists. Just when Wendy was at her wit’s end, Chloe dealt a devastating blow. Everyone online was saying

Chloe was ruthless! They couldn’t have been more right.

Her anger towards Chloe had now reached a breaking point.

“You want to go to Starlight International?”

She sneered at the room full of people. “Everyone knows Chloe and I are at loggerheads. She’s using this

recruitment to take a jab at me. Do you think she gives a -damn about you?”

The artists weren’t phased by Wendy’s sarcastic comments.

only see you fighting with her. What she does with us is none of our business. Even if she doesn’t care about us,

when have you ever cared?”

“But I trust Ms. Summers‘ character. She wouldn’t involve us in her feud with you. She wouldn’t ruin our lives just to

get back at you. After all, she’s not you.”

“Even if she doesn’t care, it’s better than putting up with your crap all the time. At least we can hold our heads high

there.”

“I’m tired of being the laughingstock because of Infinity Media.”

“Ms. Wendy, we seriously want to terminate the contract. Please sort this out ASAP.”

Wendy felt like her head was about to explode. She was having a hard time keeping it together.

“Even if you guys head off to Starlight International, you think the Alonso family would let your betrayal slide just

like that?”

Their faces shifted abruptly.

To be honest, the main reason they managed to stick around Infinity Media for so long was because they valued the

power behind the Alonso family. In fact, their careers were quite promising before Wendy took over.

If they were to leave, it’d be a piece of cake for the Alonso family to blacklist a few artists.

Seeing their hesitation, Wendy scoffed, “You all say Chloe’s pretty sharp. Do you think she hasn’t thought about how

you’d be constantly under the Alonso family’s thumb if you join her? She’s just using you to get back at me. You’re

putting so much trust in her without even knowing her. Why don’t you try breaking your contract and see if she can

protect you?”

They exchanged uneasy glances. The Alonso family, indeed, was a big problem. They weren’t idiots. Sure, the

Alonso family was big–league with a lot of assets, too big to squabble with a few minor artists. But, if they were to

cross paths with the Alonsos, the family could wipe them out easily.

They really didn’t dare to mess with the Alonso family.
